What problem does it solve?
Flow metrics makes it easy to measure delivery performance across Jira work without hand-calculating changelogs, spreadsheets, or ad hoc reports. It turns raw issue history into consistent cycle time, lead time, throughput, WIP, and flow efficiency answers you can trust.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Project and program rollups: Analyze a Jira project, sub-team, Jira Align program, or portfolio with the same metric model.
- DORA and Flow Framework outputs: Compute cycle time, lead time, throughput, WIP, flow load, rework rate, flow distribution, and defect ratio.
- Read-only safety and reproducible output: Uses Jira and Jira Align only for permitted reads, then emits canonical JSON, CSV, or per-issue JSONL for downstream analysis.
- Use case: Ask it to compare a team’s delivery performance before and after an AI-assisted workflow rollout and get a clean metric split for decision-making.
